Footage from Schumacher’s helmet camera can be used: Probe source

“It’s an important document”, said the source, who wished to remain anonymous, as investigators continued to investigate the December 29 accident in the French Alps that left the Formula One legend in a coma. It had been unclear until now whether the camera was working at the time of the accident, or whether the footage would be clear enough to use. The source however did not specify if the film could provide any leads to Schumacher’s speed at the time of his fall on a small off-piste section in between regular slopes at the Meribel resort.

French investigators are attempting to determine responsibility in the accident, and are focusing on the retired racer’s speed, as well as whether the limits of the ski runs next to the accident site were correctly marked.
